Big Stall

Ladies?? Most of the blokes on here have sticky dreams about him it would seem!

Agree Agree Youv been smoking crack! Agree

Good idea, but can whoever originally liaised with MFC who in turn spoke with United, bring this to MFC's attention, can't imagine they will be too happy to hear that despite official clearance, the lads were still refused.

Just as well Cassagolda wasn't there, Swanson would have had no chance!

Top 6 last season, cup final, now sitting 4 points clear in third place. I hate to break it to you, but that is actually pretty good for Motherwell!

We were absolutely brutal today, but............................ who gives a fuck!! A win against that auld c**t was what was really needed! Well done to Boab, up until Tuesday nights cameo I hadn't seen anything from him to suggest he would be any good, but the minutes he's had in the last coup[le of games have been encouraging. If he's not yet ready for a starting place then at the very least he's due the last hour of the next few games! Aberdeen tried to park the bus, and we didnt have our game with us today to break them down. Im not going to worry about it too much, but rather enjoy the evening. 16 points from 9 games, 4 points clear in third, I'll take that! Mon the 'well!!

Craigans been playing lhs since Reynolds left. Hutchy plays right side.

Where does this idea come from? I'de been told by a few people before the Hibs game that Omar was supposed to be a flying machine. When he came on he looked reasonably composed but there was noway in hell he was anywhere near as fast as Humphrey!

On lastnights evidence, there is noway that Omar is faster than Humphrey!

The problem with this thinking is that Humphrey more often than not, doesn't show up. If he played every game like he did lastnight then he would be on my team sheet first, but he doesn't! The boy needs to develop consistency or else whats the point in playing someone who is a diddy 4 games out of 5??

Randolph, followed by Law and Humphrey.

Great game, shite result! Absolutley pulsating cup tie, end to end, both teams could have won by quite a few goals. I'de like to think we were the better team, but saying that, Randy had to pull off quite a number of great saves. Our defence was terrible, both goals resulting from errors. When did we decide passing it back to the keeper for him to hoof it up the park was a better idea the defenders just booting it themselves?? First 10 minutes I thought we were poor and in for a drubbing, our confidence was clearly down and we looked to be picking up where we left off on Saturday. Credit to the boys though, they got back in there and played much better. I thought we had 3 stand out players lastnight, Law, Humphrey and Randolph. If Humphrey can develop some kind of consistency and deliver on that level week in week out, he will quickly turn into our main weapon and a fans favourite.

Given that Im happy enough to come on these boards and say he's pish when he is, its only fair to say Humphrey had a great game lastnight. One of our better players. Hopefully he can develop some consistency now!

Based on what? 10 minutes of dross on Saturday?

That was you tellt!

Come on, just say it........... He was pish on Saturday!

Not yet a Higdon basher, but the problem I have with him is that he doesn't seem to bother to try and jump to win his headers. He stands there expecting the ball to land on his head, all the while the defenders jump for it and win it. He was pish at the weekend, but so were the rest of the team.

It would maybe be harsh to call him pish 100% of the time, but he was certainly pish yesterday, as were the rest of the team!

If he comes back in 5 weeks then thats fantastic news. I've said it before, but mine looked identical to that and I was properly fucked. Mon the 'well physio!!

Im pretty sure we do try. Just not succesfully!

We Motherwell fans really are a bunch of moaning bastards. Top6, cup final, clear in third place. Obviously none of that is quite good enough so lets moan about something else. If we were to ever win the league, we would probably be moaning about not being able to win the Champions League! Get a grip!!

Aye, thats what mine looked like. Not good. He won't be playing for a while anyway.

Its definitely a big blow, Hutchie is a cracking player for us and when needed, is probably the one guy in the team that can hit someone hard. He's posted a picture of his ankle on twitter, doesn't look good. I ruptured my ankle ligaments a few years back playing fives, it swelled up like that, and then went black. Was out of footballing type action for at least 4 months. Saying that, Im not a professional athlete, nor did I have access to physio's etc, so you would expect he's going to heal much quicker than me. Hopefully its just a bad sprain or something. Hope the big man gets back soon!

I can't even bring myself to read the majority of this thread. Lets look at the bigger picture. 1 - McCall came in when the team was looking like going into free fall. He got us top 6 and a cup final. That is success in our book period! 2 - After 7 games into the new season we are sitting clear in third place, we have already played both the ugly sisters, and aside from Dundee United we have relative cannon fodder still to play in this quarter so fingers and baws crossed, wood touched we might get 25% of the season in at 3rd place. 3 - We are actually playing good football, certainly a step up from Brown. We look like we have goal threats all over the pitch and whilst we all know it, Radio Scotland acknowledged yesterday that in terms of starting 11, we are good enough to take on anyone outwith the old firm. 4 - We are never going to beat the old firm over the course of the season, so do I really care if we get pumped by them 9 times out of 10? Not really, what is far more important to us is our performance against the other 9 teams!. Any points gained against the old firm should be viewed as a bonus, and it just goes to show the mentality of the football fan that despite us doing so well on the pitch at the moment, some folk still find something to greet about. And as for the statistics presented in the first post, the reality is that there is not much to differentiate McCall from the rest of the managers analysed. A couple of good results this season and he will probably be top in those stats.

Apart from it being a nice gesture by Faddy if true, one added bonus is it will get it right up those dellusional Aberdeen fans who thought McFadden was going to sign for them. He won't sign for Broon and his big team, but he'll happilly give the 'well £25k out of his skyrocket! Outstanding!
